Dr. Ruth's Guide to Talking About Herpes

I lost the book when I moved before reading it. But I remember it shipped nicely.

and as a advocate in the world of STD's for many years, I would highly recommend this book to anyone. It's not just for those who have experienced the physical issues that surround an STD diagnosis; it delves much deeper into the psychological and emotional aspects as well.This book is a great resource for those living with an STD and provides as much of a step-by-step process to emotional recovery as any I have read.I would highly recommend that anyone who is single and dating to pick up this book and read it cover to cover, perhaps even a couple of times. It will prepare you for the day when one of my 60 Million peers approach you with "The Talk" where they will disclose their own personal status and allow you to make a well informed decision on whether to continue the relationship or not.Be sure to purchase your own copy and not borrow it, you will want to use a highlighter.GaylaBoth a participant and reader of this book

Dr Ruth was a straight talker and if you want concise information about this topic without judgment this is a good resource although I wish she would do an updated version or someone could redo it for her with updates

A good book to help you understand the emotional ramifications of herpes and how you can handle the issues. Has better explanations of other peoples behaviors towards you. After reading about the science of herpes by Terri Warren, read this.
